must have balance , silky feathering , not overly big , nice straight wing when fanned open .

medium to long casted , pay no attention to eyes . basket the final arbiter

cant tell by looking as they come in all shapes and sizes, the only thing is mr basket

Type, strong back, good wing but most importantly birds from somebody winning at the distance you want to fly and into a similar area to the one you will be flying into.
